Can you take creatine all year round? as i thaught that you should only use it for a max of 3 months, then take a month or 2 off to give ur kidney's a break?

yes.. if you eat any meat at all you are already taking creatine 24/7/365
and if you don't eat meat your body produces it (think muscle fuels ATP/Creatine Phosphate/Glycogen/Oxidative Liposis ect ect ect
it doesn't effect the kidneys unless you abuse it
I advocate taking it in small amounts only on heavy weight training days (unless you skip real meals and use the MRP's then you need extra stuff like creatine/cla/extra vitamins, additional fiber ect ect)
